Sustainability Initiative
The Universities at Shady Grove (USG) is committed to environmental stewardship. As educators, it is our responsibility to promote and encourage eco-friendly practices. Working with our partner institutions, local schools, and businesses, it is our goal to act as a facilitator and heighten awareness regarding sustainability to our students and surrounding community. USG is a place where students and community members can learn about greening initiatives and exchange ideas through a collaborative effort of staff, faculty, and students. We will strive to make each member of our community more cognizant of their environmental footprint.
